Great…keep the PG rated era going. Been doing so well, why stop? Somehow, Vince needs to see that he, too, is running a business and do what made him great in the Attitude Era. WWE shows look like a damn circus now, and getting sillier every week. Oh, how the mighty have fallen

The Attitude Era worked well because is was fresh at the time. Just having Cena and Orton go out there cursing every other word for no reason and having skanky women isn’t going to improve the current situation. TNA does that every Thursday night and there is no ratings growth at all. I grew up watching Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock so yeah, I loved that era as well. The PG rating isn’t holding WWE back, it’s the lack of competition, complacency, and the lack of fresh ideas. Crash TV is not the answer. Vince Russo was considered a genius at one point and most of the IWC hates him even though he’s writing the same style he always has. Alot of the things people criticize WWE and TNA for today, WWE was being praised for as cutting edge from 1997-2001. Rapid fire title changes, weekly heel/face turns, blood, slutty women getting pushed, cheap finishes, etc.

Vince knows he’s running a business. You have to look at the Bottom Line. From a purely business/financial point of view, the WWE is making more money now than ever before, thanks to the million dollar merchandising deals, the mainstream sponsors & other generated revenue. There’s no competition out there which would necessitate a need to radically change things … as long as the money keeps pouring in, Vince can live with the grumblings from the IWC.
